I know I saw a "convention" to shorten the link. Can you help me out how to do it?

Also in the "Help/Instructions" at the bottom of every forum page.

I vaguely think it was described by fc_spoiler, but I may well be wrong about that. jacko Senior Member Username: jacko Post Number: 914 Registered: 10-2002 Posted on Monday, December 04, 2006 - 4:59 am:    type in this... \link { link , your word } but remove the spaces (tried to post this without the spaces and it did the formatting.
